    Nicolas Winding Refn is a Danish filmmaker, most famous for directing the Pusher trilogy. Prior to these films, the idea of a Danish crime film was laughable. Refn shattered that notion, crafting a trilogy that has become infamous for its bleak outlook and utterly uncompromising style. Born in 1970 to parents who worked in film, he moved to the United States when he was eleven and filmed Pusher when he was twenty-six. Nearly all of his work has received critical acclaim, with his most recent film (Drive) being a critical darling and a modest success in the United States. His films tend to focus on crime and violence, coupled with more existential themes like morality and spirituality. In recent years he seems to focus most of his films on larger-than-life masculine protagonists with violent tendencies.
